X-shooter, the new wide band intermediate resolution spectrograph at the ESO Very Large Telescope
Joel Vernet, H. Dekker, S. D'Odorico +87
X-shooter is the first 2nd generation instrument of the ESO Very Large Telescope(VLT). It is a very efficient, single-target, intermediate-resolution spectrograph that was installe…
The Hera Saturn Entry Probe Mission
O. Mousis, D. H. Atkinson, T. Spilker +41
The Hera Saturn entry probe mission is proposed as an M--class mission led by ESA with a contribution from NASA. It consists of one atmospheric probe to be sent into the atmosphere…
Study of electronic and magnetic properties and related x-ray absorption spectroscopy of ultrathin Co films on BaTiO
M. Hoffmann, St. Borek, I. V. Maznichenko +7
We present a first-principles study of electronic and magnetic properties of thin Co films on a BaTiO(001) single crystal. The crystalline structure of 1, 2, and 3 monolayer th…
Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Trigger and Physics
The ATLAS Collaboration, G. Aad, E. Abat +2604
A detailed study is presented of the expected performance of the ATLAS detector. The reconstruction of tracks, leptons, photons, missing energy and jets is investigated, together w…
Scientific rationale of Saturn's in situ exploration
O. Mousis, L. N. Fletcher, J. -P. Lebreton +47
Remote sensing observations meet some limitations when used to study the bulk atmospheric composition of the giant planets of our solar system. A remarkable example of the superior…
Atmospheric Electricity at the Ice Giants
K. L. Aplin, G. Fischer, T. A. Nordheim +3
Lightning was detected by Voyager 2 at Uranus and Neptune, and weaker electrical processes also occur throughout planetary atmospheres from galactic cosmic ray (GCR) ionisation. Li…
Overview of Saturn lightning observations
G. Fischer, U. A. Dyudina, W. S. Kurth +8
The lightning activity in Saturn's atmosphere has been monitored by Cassini for more than six years. The continuous observations of the radio signatures called SEDs (Saturn Electro…
Rare earth spin ensemble magnetically coupled to a superconducting resonator
P. Bushev, A. K. Feofanov, H. Rotzinger +6
Interfacing superconducting quantum processors, working in the GHz frequency range, with optical quantum networks and atomic qubits is a challenging task for the implementation of…
High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
Thermoelectric effects in superconductor-ferromagnet tunnel junctions on europium sulfide
S. Kolenda, C. Sürgers, G. Fischer +1
We report on large thermoelectric effects in superconductor-ferromagnet tunnel junctions in proximity contact with the ferromagnetic insulator europium sulfide. The combination of…
In-flight calibration of STEREO-B/WAVES antenna system
M. Panchenko, W. Macher, H. O. Rucker +4
The STEREO/WAVES (SWAVES) experiment on board the two STEREO spacecraft (Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory) launched on 25 October 2006 is dedicated to the measurement of the…
Instrumental Methods for Professional and Amateur Collaborations in Planetary Astronomy
O. Mousis, R. Hueso, J. -P. Beaulieu +57
Amateur contributions to professional publications have increased exponentially over the last decades in the field of Planetary Astronomy. Here we review the different domains of t…
Anomalous Nernst effect in ferromagnetic MnGeC thin films on insulating sapphire
R. Kraft, S. Srichandan, G. Fischer +1
Investigating the thermoelectric properties of ferromagnets is important for the development of future microelectronic devices for efficient energy conversion purposes. Ferromagnet…
Spin-polarized quasiparticle transport in exchange-split superconducting aluminum on europium sulfide
M. J. Wolf, C. Sürgers, G. Fischer +1
